When someone asks you to walk a mile in their shoes, they don’t necessarily mean their actual shoes. It’s a saying that could mean “you don’t know what it’s like to be a woman” or “you’re a straight white man.” But a group of guys decided to wear a pair of heels for a week, to see what a woman actually goes through when wearing ’em.

It starts pretty well, with one guy getting the compliment, “your calves look amazing.” But then the boys trotted on some grass, and quickly learned how impossible it is to walk on uneven surfaces. From involuntary muscle spasms to feeling some serious pain in the balls of their feet, these boys gave it the ol’ college try. “Women in general. I applaud you so highly,” says one dude.

It’s not every day that a man seeks to feel how women feel almost every day. So, the video is not only hilarious, it’s also pretty eye-opening. And stick around afterwards, because these guys try all sorts of other things that you’re going to want to see.
